Answers :

\015\012Be careful!\015\012• This operation will destroy all data in the card. If you have already used the card, be sure that you are not about to destroy important image data.\015\012• Some cards come equipped with special built-in functions. Formatting such cards may in some cases cause them to loose their functionality. Before formatting a specialty card, please read the documentation included with the card.\015\012• You cannot format a card that is protected by a write-protect seal.You must remove the seal before formatting. Please discard used seals; write-protect seals should not be reused.\015\012\015\012Go to Menu and select the trashcan. Select the symbol that looks like a hammer. Select Yes or No.\015\012CAUTION\015\012• You cannot cancel formatting once the camera has begun executing the format. After selecting YES and pressing the OK button, you must allow formatting to proceed.\015\012• Do not open the card compartment cover, remove the batteries, or disconnect the AC adapter while formatting is in progress (while the lamp is blinking), as doing so may damage the card.

Can no longer copy from internal to memory card. Keeps saying "Memory card requires formatting." When I choose "continue" the camera tries formatting then goes back to the original screen saying "Memory card requires formatting." I bought a new memory card and it does the same thing. I formatted the new one on my computer and then tried it in the camera with the same result.

Memory card Our old memory card stopped working in the camera. It said "memory card error". I bought a new card, 8gb duracell sdhc card, and when I put it in it said"memory card error" again.

Hey. I bought a new camera some days ago with a new Digix 4gb SDHC memory card. I went to Disney World and took normally a lot of pictures. From one moment to another, the camera gives me the message "Memory card error" and won't let me take nor view pictures. I tried removing the memory card and everything. I checked and It isn't locked or something. Also, I tried using a memory card reader on my laptop, and it says I have to format to read the card. I REALLY don't want to lose the pictures.

The first thing that may be complicating things is, can your laptop read SDHC cards, or just SD cards? If the laptop is asking you to format it, then probably it's working, but be really sure, before you continue.Check the co ...
